Anonymity

Every once in a while on internet we come across a person who happens to be a complete nuisance, behaving in unethical and immoral way which may surely get him into trouble if done same in real world. Is such kind of attitude due the power of "Anonymity" which internet easily provide? We often find ourselves in tight corners due to such behavior from some psycho's who are unleashed throughout the world. Psychologist often regard such people to be totally sane in their normal lives, they behave, eat, talk much like a normal sensible human being, but when it comes to their online avatar things changes drastically, they get into a shroud of perverse behavior, thinks that they are invincible and untraceable, so they start behaving completely opposite to their normal persona.

So what to do when we bump into these online nemesis? our best bet it is to ignore them completely coz such individuals gets a high when they see others panic in front of them, they get turned off if their target stops reacting to their threats and abuse (i had experienced it myself)

We will always have bad apples among us and they will make us doubt even the decent people, we gotta learn from our past experiences and make our future safe, but we will always wonder in despair - "is anonymity a tool to behave unethically?"
